Fastly rolls out automated DDoS defense for edge applications
Global edge cloud platforms provider Fastly has launched a new DDoS protection solution designed to automatically block malicious traffic targeting applications and APIs.
The solution is easy to use, requiring only a single click to activate protection against Layer 7 and other application-level DDoS attacks. Fastly DDoS Protection utilizes advanced techniques from Fastly’s global network to provide tailored protection for customers.
The service is designed to detect, evaluate, and respond to DDoS attacks without manual intervention, ensuring continuous application availability.
“We’ve engineered Fastly DDoS Protection to detect, evaluate, and immediately react to DDoS attacks without any manual intervention or reactive effort required,” says Kip Compton, chief product officer at Fastly. “That way, customers gain the confidence that their software services will stay up and healthy no matter what app avalanches attackers attempt.”
Modern DDoS attacks can severely impact organizations, making automated protection essential for maintaining operational resilience.
Fastly’s DDoS Protection features proprietary Attribute Unmasking techniques for faster and more adaptive defense against attacks. Customers only pay for legitimate traffic, eliminating costs associated with attack traffic mitigated by Fastly.
The solution helps reduce cloud spending by preventing DDoS attacks from reaching backend services. Fastly DDoS Protection is crucial for various industries, ensuring stability and reliability during cyber threats.
Fastly’s platform is trusted by major brands for delivering secure and high-performance online experiences. Earlier this year Fastly rolled out a solution aimed at helping organizations combat automated “bot” attacks at the edge of their networks.
